But Dataslide, a firm based in Sussex, Britain, believes it has a revolutionary solution to the retrieval problem that does not require waiting for solid-state mass memory—or, rather, it has a non-revolutionary one.Dataslide proposes to abandon rotation in favour of vibration.
The on-board computer architecture should provide the means to continuously store science data for a period of up to three days in a solid-state mass memory (SSMM), which implies a minimal capacity of ({sim}650mbox{ Mbytes}), which is easily achieved with any modern mass memory (capacity up to 2 TeraBit).
The recent development of surface-enhanced laser desorption/ionization technology, based on improved methods for the chemical preparation of absorptive surfaces and their use for solid-state mass spectrometry, allows high-throughput protein analysis of crude biologic samples [ 16].
The influence of the subsequent solid state annealing and the related mass-supply effects on the stability of the microstructure are also discussed.
At the onset, the torque was so small that the stirrer could not rotate when the coal mass was in the solid state.
Correlations were developed from transient experiments and steady state mass balance data to correct the solids velocity and solids fraction in the standpipe as a function of standpipe aeration rate.

The residue left after solid state fermentation was evaluated for carbon/nitrogen ratio, dry mass loss, and loss of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin.
Chemicals associated with particulates were characterized by the Bioanalytical Mass Spectrometry Facility and the Solid State and Elemental Analysis Unit, UNSW.
MALDI-TOF MS analysis was conducted using the Bruker ultrafleXtreme mass spectrometer with a frequency tripled Nd YAG solid state laser.
Additionally, sizeable cost reductions are possible through a concept called "mass customization" that is being pursued in the US Department of Energy's Solid State Energy Conversion Alliance SECAA).
